When git is not in `$PATH`, executions of maven builds using
maven-scm-provider-gitexe will fail with a message like this:
```
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal
org.codehaus.mojo:buildnumber-maven-plugin:1.4:create (default) on project
test: Cannot get the
revision information from the scm repository :
[ERROR] Exception while executing SCM command. Error while executing
command. Error while executing process. Cannot run program "git" (in di
rectory "C:\dev\test"): CreateProcess error=2, Das System kann die ang
egebene Datei nicht finden
```
Some configuration for the path to git's executable is desirable.
